Our T-34-85 was pulled from AusArmourfest after spraying oil and making a nasty mechanical noise. This week Steve and Dave go looking for the cause. The covers come off the back, the starter motor checks out, and the electrical system proves healthy. An inspection camera goes down past the front of the crankshaft while the engine runs, but there’s no river of oil to be seen. Comparing against spare T-34 and T-55 engines doesn’t settle it either, so the leak gets parked. What they do find is a hell of a lot of slack in the clutch assembly, runout, and a release mechanism rattling around when it should be still. Our SU-100 and T-34-76 are both tight as anything by comparison. So the transmission comes out. Inside, gear oil has found its way onto the steering brakes, exactly the problem German crews complained bitterly about when operating captured T-34s. There’s heat spotting on the brake bands, a left hand thread, a missing Woodruff key, three ball bearings that drive the steering clutch’s cam action, and a flogged seal. Then the big reveal: the flywheel isn’t clamped against the crankshaft spline the way it should be. The retaining nut is loose, there’s real axial movement, and it may well be the source of the awful metallic harmonic Steve has been chasing for three and a half to four years. Can you spot where the oil is coming from? Steve asked, so let us know in the comments. 📺 The day it was pulled from AusArmourfest: https://youtu.be/nY0lIsaHBEc 📺 The full AusArmourfest casualty list: https://youtu.be/oxAv0vPpkhc 🎟️ AusArmourfest 2027 tickets are LIVE!
